Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program

The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program is a Federal grant program that provides funding for cities to address the causes and consequences of poverty through activities that benefit low- and moderate-income persons. HUD regulations and Federal law determine which activities are eligible for this funding.  See HUD's CDBG rules and regulations. 

Income Guidelines

HUD defines low- and moderate-income as households earning at or below 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI). These guidelines are updated annually. You can find the most recent income guidelines here.
